My heart is pumping for action every day.
Im always involve in production meetings and giving my opinion to better the product or lessen the downtime on their part. Suggesting changes in planning on production and maintenance. Hands on approach on any problem resulting in down time. Always the 5 why's.....and solve the problem. Safety orientated at all times. Never look the other way. Spreadsheets on failures, downtime and uptime. I wake up to go to work in the morning! Most challenging is to make every one happy but also to make sure the product goes out the door as planned. ........you can not make everybody happy at the same time but you can sure as hell try youre best to what you need to do to get youre job done correctly sufficiantly and as fast as possible.
Pros: Great oppertunity for me to better myself
Cons: Long working hours
